Your skin is a vast organ (the largest your body has) with many responsibilities to keep you healthy, such as temperature regulation, a barrier against external harm, sweating, hair growth, and feeling. Taking care of your skin is important to preserve that health but skin problems can lead to visual imperfections like discoloration, rashes, patches, and other problems that change how people see us and how we see ourselves.
Laser resurfacing is a technology we use to treat many skin problems, and Clear + Brilliant is a form of this technique ideally suited to restore blemish-free, healthy-looking skin. Let’s examine the device itself, its benefits for your skin, and how the process works to find out what it offers.
Residents of the Lake Oswego area looking to improve their skin and make it look clear and beautiful can find help with the Lake Oswego Laser Aesthetics (LOLA) team at Lake Grove ENT.
This method of treating skin uses forced light to remove damaged cells and stimulate the layers to encourage the production of structural proteins in the skin, like collagen and elastin, which are essential for firmness and tightness. To do this, the fractional laser the device emits is broken up into smaller beams on two wavelengths and works on portions of the skin leaving the rest to heal. It can be used on any skin tone, and men and women can benefit from what it can do for them.
This process is helpful in managing skin problems like:
You have two types of pores, one for sweating, and the other for producing sebum which keeps your skin moist. The pores that release sebum can appear enlarged, and we can use this to reduce its appearance on your skin.
When parts of your skin become darker in spots or patches, it can be due to sun overexposure, hormonal changes, chemotherapy, and certain medications. We can remove them from your skin.
This fractional laser can greatly reduce early signs of aging, like creases and fine lines.
This can happen for many reasons, including scars, acne, sun overexposure, aging, and some medications, and can be temporary or permanent changes in your skin. Our device can help remove whatever it is.
Here’s how the Clear +Brilliant process works:
The Clear + Brilliant device employs Intelligent Optical Tracking, which enhances contact with skin and keeps the amount of light evenly spread across the targeted skin. Once the anesthetic wears off, you’ll need to use compresses to reduce tenderness and discomfort.
The finished result will give you better-looking skin you can feel confident about showing to the world! So, if you have blemishes and imperfections on your skin you want to be rid of, make an appointment with the LOLA team at Lake Grove ENT today.
